National Day of Prayer
Our Refuge in Times of Trouble
On Thursday, May 7, you are invited to join us on a Zoom video conference for a National Day of Prayer Service from 7pm to 8pm.
With the recent pandemic affecting so many people, both close to us and globally, we feel the urgent need to seek God’s face in prayer. But a task like this is too great to be done alone, so we are joining with churches from the surrounding areas in a National Day of Prayer. Our very own Pastors, Bob Erbig and Dave Hentschel, as well as pastor emeritus, Dr. Peter Pendell, will be contributing key moments in lifting up these burdens to God’s throne.
After a brief word of encouragement from Psalm 46, eight local pastors will lead us in prayer for: those directly affected by the coronavirus, frontline medical workers, the church’s response to the suffering around us, and that God would bring about revival through these recent events.
WHEN: Thursday, May 7 | 7pm – 8pm

We hope you’ll join us for the National Day of Prayer, as together, we look to our Refuge in times of trouble!
Coming Soon: Campus Upgrades
Parking Lot Paving Project
Next on our list of capital improvement projects is paving our campus parking lot. While there is a lull in campus activity, we hope to begin as soon as the Governor’s restrictions are lifted, possibly in a couple weeks. At that time you may see some construction equipment and there may be some minor inconveniences while they tend to that work.
How we care for our campus is a testimony to our community. Thank you for bearing witness to our neighbors through this effort, and for your part in Expanding The Table…for the Glory of God!
Feeding Hands
Neighbor Connect
We are excited to participate in a new initiative from our partner organization, Feeding Hands. The goal of Neighbor Connect is to spark a “viral” program of neighbor connection that encourages folks to safely connect with their immediate neighbors and “work from home” to feed and care for their neighborhood and community.
How it works…
Collect boxes of food and connect with immediate neighbors who need a hand. Locally prepared boxes (List of Food Items) of groceries will be distributed first to:
-
Immediate neighbors in need.
-
Feeding Hands for local distribution (Click for Locations).
-
Your local community food pantry for those who are located outside the Central NJ area.
Working together, our hands will feed deep needs in our communities for connection that last well beyond the duration of this pandemic. Visit the Feeding Hands website to learn more.
Shuttle Service from the Chabad
The Shuttle to park at the Chabad next to MBC will be suspended for 12/24 and 12/29.
